I served eight years in the infantry and was discharged in 2022 with a back injury. I have been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place. I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $2,100. I'm receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and am committed to my recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces. I'd be grateful for any help and will share updates on how I'm doing. I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden. Where the $2,100 goes: • Transport to appointments: $330 • Essential household items: $260 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,510 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Pierre

        is there anything that isn't money that would help Pierre?

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about transport to appointments, advice is welcome too. I'll keep the page updated.

      • keep going, Pierre. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.

            Looking forward to the next update. After 22 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

            • Hope things get better soon, Pierre. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Tampa so I could bring a meal. Take care!

              • Gave what I could, wish it was more. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best!

                • Rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together.

                  • Good luck. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Sacramento.

                    • Best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 11 people at work. Greetings from Adelaide
